"Decaf"

I just had two cups of "decaf" and I feel like my PowerBook/desk/chair/office is going to be shaken apart into tiny pieces by my jittery body.
This effect is not aided by the Brassy song that just came up in my iTunes playlist. I don't even know where it came from, I can't figure out where I downloaded it from. I thought I would hear nothing but the soothing tones of Broadcast, Boards of Canada, and Stereolab all afternoon. But nay.
The club has a new BOH computer (back-of-house... it does all that crap like validating your credit cards, tracking food & drink orders, etc) here in the office that looks like the Death Star. Well, actually, it just looks like what Darth Vader's home peecee might have been like, if, you know, ol' DV had a home peecee or even a home. Some kind of frightening black IBM thing. I'm fairly certain that it is evil but luckily Monkey, Pink, Ally & Rory are not afraid of it.
Monkey, Pink and Ally are the three iMacs in my office. They are orange, strawberry, and "graphite" respectively. Rory is my PowerBook. YES I AM SO LAME THAT I NAME MY COMPUTERS. Thanks for asking. As a matter of fact, I just named the graphite one for the purposes of this post because it didn't actually have a name. Its user didn't even bother to change the name of the hard drive from "Macintosh HD"! But it has a MacAlly keyboard, so Ally it is. Cheers.
